Today we had our first workday at this farm. They sell chicken eggs and a variety of vegetables. Today we worked in the greenhouse and outside after it stopped raining. You can read more about that in post Day 12. This farm has a dog that looks like a fox. Her name is Puru. They say that Puru helps scare away the rabbits so they don't eat their organic vegetables. Also they have a manmade pond with many frogs to eat the insects. The pond is from their waste water from the house purified in three different tanks then pumped into a small pond. The only thing that is bad for the veggies is when the weather is bad. I helped cook the noodles for dinner. Also we took showers and they have a very nice wooden shower. There was a big spider between the window and the screen so Mom had to scare it away. We saw the amazing sunset and said we might hike the mountain if there is clear weather but it would take 8 hours and Mt. Yotei took 10. Also we found a pretty snail and watched it.
